I'm just trying to be objective and look at his body of work here. His draft was actually fairly decent (hard to tell yet) in his one year at the helm and he had to deal with the freak show that was Urban Meyer for that season. That's where all the scorn belongs, IMO.

Because if you had been here before Bevell signed with us, you'd have understood that we've endured a decade and a half of bad darfting, pitiful front office hires, unrest among players toward coaches, management and ownership, and we're [BLEEP] done with that song and dance. We want professionalism, harmony, and expertise, and you're not checking a lot of those boxes when TB is your de facto decision maker.

Your assertion that he's behind last year's picks is speculation alone (unless you have an in the rest of us don't) and defies Khan's own statement that Urban would be shaping the roster to suit his own designs.

This isn't saying that he can't learn from his past, or that his picks will all have ACLs held together with twine and duct tape. But, as a fanbase, we're less than willing to play wait and see while we continue to circle the drain. It's not impatience; it's exhaustion.

OK, I get the frustration, but as you just claimed, he hasn't even been in charge of his own draft or free agency yet, so why is he being skewered. I mean, give the guy a chance. 
And who knows the crap that Urban put everyone through. He reminds me of the coach Voight played in Friday Night Lights.
Maybe Khan sees this too.
